Hong Kong's public transport infrastructure has a high reputation throughout the world. The MTR is justly famous.

At the moment, announcements in the coaches is bilingual, in Cantonese and English. Would it be possible to add Mandarin to make things more convenient for Mandarin-speaking people while they are visiting and staying in the SAR?

The KCR Corporation has had a trilingual broadcast for some time.

I wonder if the MTR Corporation has looked into the feasibility of such a system on its network.
